Hey Ladies

Joey congrats on the scan!!! yipee

You to raisingminime!!! i can't wait for mine.. one more week!!

Nic/billiboi congrats on telling people and getting such positive reactions!!

Kate!! yipee!! on the scan let us know how it goes. i know what you mean about being lucky to be in healthcare.. i'm not but my best friend is and although she's not my doctor one of her good friends is and they're in the same clinic so she takes care of me

Mrs. W sorry to hear about your scan, the holidays will fly by and your scan will be here before you know it!!

i can't believe that we are almost out of the first trimester already!!! i am starting to feel much better, still nauseous most of the day but i've been able to cut out my meds... i am more struggling with finding foods that will go down... and the meds don't help with that.

Well hope everyone has a great day and i look forward to hearing about more scans!!! and seeing pics too!!!!

Congrats on your scan MimiMe! and thanks for sharing. do you mind if I get your name? I have a list on the first page I'd like to add it to : )

Kate, your lucky you have access to a scan, and I wouldn't mention it to the doctor either just in case ; )

Becky, I was hoping for the same thing (showing a scan pic before the new year), but if I have to wait I will.

I have been eating bad lately. lots of salty crap, and I even had a Pepsi at 8 in the morning the other day! I hope it's just a phase. I just now had an apple though, followed by chips. But I did drink a glass of water.

It's my last week of the semester for school! Then no more school until mid-Jan. Yayyy!

Does anyone find that they felt a bit panic before their first scan? Mine is on Monday and I find myself panicking that the baby might have died Can't get it out my head- i was awake really late thinking about it

 

[klsltsp]

Jill

I totally know what you mean, I think it's very normal I've already had 2 scans and both times I was nervous/petrofied that I would get there and that there would be no heartbeat etc.. both times have been wonderful and I kick myself for being so worried!!! I'm sure your little bean is perfect!!!

Once we get a bit further along and you're able to feel kicks, that helps to reassure you between apointments and scans...

I've thought about that too. I think once the time gets close everyone might think a little negatively about the worst possible scenario. But the symptoms can help ease your mind a bit (whichever ones you have).

Try not to stress

 

[joeybrooks]

I too was terrified before my first scan. I had visions of there being absolutely nothing there and then me wondering why my belly is so bloated - would have had to go straight back to weight watchers lol.

I think it is only natural to be anxious, it is a big event and the first time you get actual proof that there is a little living thing in there. I heard the heartbeat and seen it moving, it was wonderful and has helped with bonding.

All the best, I am sure it will be wonderful!

 

[kgriffin]

Jill, we all feel that way, keep positive thoughts in your head!

 

[Mrs W 11]

I think its normal to feel that way Jill - I am worried about it too but also really excited for the scan.

Well all the stress about when the scan would be was for nothing as I finally got the call this morning and it is booked for Monday!! Whoop! Perfect as DH and I have a long weekend and are off Monday So excited.

Brilliants news for everyone that has had their scans now and not long to go for the rest of us! Roll on the excitment of 2nd tri where I am hoping to blossom and glow with a lovely bump ha ha ha.

How is everyone feeling? I def feel better now, no nausea, less tired and even boobs are less sore than they were a few weeks ago. Got home from work tonight and have done all of the cleaning so the house is spick and span so i can enjoy my weekend with DH

Enjoy your weekends.

Becky

[kgriffin]

Wow Becky, how exciting, now you can relax with a clean house all weekend, a long weekend at that and you and dh can have your scan monday! Can't wait to hear how it goes, enjoy your weekend~

Happy Friday everyone!

 

[Dahlia2007]

That's great for you Becky! That was a quick booking, I hope it goes that fast for me! I have some massive straightening out to do in our house, but I'll have plenty of time for that during winter break (off from school), which starts tomorrow night for me!

I thought someone else was taking classes... was that Jill? I forget...

Have a great weekend everyone! I can't wait to get some sleep tonight and snuggle with my daughter in the morning : )

hey ladies,

our news is that we have to see a genetic counsellor jan 3rd due to my dh's stillborn a few years back. i had to have him email his ex (who now has a healthy baby) to get some medical records, hopefuly she is cooperative, i think she will be, but you never k now. i know its very emotional for him, and im sure her too once she sees the email, the counsellor seems to think dh could carry some abnormal gene, its pretty scary to be honest, the stillbirth occured at 39+6, i cant even imagine making it that far i hope she sends everything and we can have some resolution

Kate, what a tough situation to have to deal with. It will be emotional, and the only advice I can give is prayer. And try not to think about the extent of it, just think in the present. Easier said than done, I know. I would also hope that the ex would realize how important it is to get this information and cooperate willingly.

And I have a question... since this is an issue of the baby's health, will you be getting a CVS or amnio done at all?

Kate, That whole genetics counseling is some scary stuff! I just recently had all of my blood drawn for it, my youngest is disabled and has frequent seizures. I often get criticized for having another or wanting another cause of the possibility of something happening genetic related. Saying that i know your case is extremely different. Even if he does have something going on related to genetics (btw im not a doc obv just from experience with genetics over the past two years) back to what i was saying, even if he does have a gene that is "mutate" "doubled" or "extra" does not necessarily mean that it bonded with yours and will have the same effect on your pregnancy with him. Genetics are weird, my older one has no genetic defect and my youngest does and they both have the same parents. I hope this puts your mind to ease a little. I had a MC at 19 weeks and they claimed it was related to genetics it was my first pregnancy, I have went to have two full successful ones and hopefully on my third, just even if they give you not so good news. Only time and prayers will tell! BTw anything they really need to know even if the ex doesnt give her medical records up, they can learn from blood work. If theres any questions i can answer from my standpoint im willing to help!
